We stayed three nights. As mentioned by others, the locations is right on the ocean. We had to move to another room due to a couple of issues. Both rooms were in the same as far as size, condition of the furniture, decor, cleanliness.

a great spot RIGHT on the beach on Monterey Bay. Ocean front room was exactly that. We will certainly be back to stay here again. And the restaurant was quite good, incredible views from every table! our waiter Joaquin was extremely helpful and personable, pointed us towards the very tasty beet salad and the delicious sea bass.

The hotel's lobby offers a wonderful view of the surf and bay.... great for having an early evening drink and watching the waves before dinner. As an observation- The Hotel probably wishes it was designed more as a hotel and less as a motel as the winds make the patios unbearable and thus useless when having an oceanfront room. Our... More

Great location and pleasant rooms. We loved the electrically controlled sun screen and blind.the resturaunt was average but the waiter was knowledgeable and keen that we shouldn,t wait to order as there were two large parties. We don't understand why you charge $15 per night for parking, there goes the 10% discount in a flash. If the public park there,... More

I've stayed in Best Westerns before and the beds have been so much better and my husband kept running into the... More

This hotel would be my first choice if I ever visit Monterey again. I love the sound of the ocean, and this room would be better if there were windows to open. The beds were awesome, so comfortable, and everything was clean. Wonderful bath products. We were able to get this room for free as a Rewards member, but the... More

Just sitting in the bar watching the waves crash is intoxicating. Okay, so the drinks are too! Very nice staff. Rooms are okay. Bring ear plugs. Good location to visit rest of peninsula. Nice beach but remember that the water will always be cold.

We were traveling to Napa for our anniversary celebration (a gift from our children) and decided to stay at this Best Western, and we made a choice that we will always remember. The staff was extraordinary and watching the sunrise and sunset over the ocean was awesome and relaxing. They have created a resort environment. We also had breakfast at... More

My husband and I stayed her for our annual anniversary weekend away. The hotel had been recommended by a friend who didn't steer us wrong. What a great place! Being right on the ocean can't be beat. The service from every employee we came into contact was exemplary. Highly recommend this hotel for it's service, comfort and really excellent location.
